Time is on our side
There's something in the air
There's something in the air
Stand up and fight for the rights
For the one who really care
For the one who really care

Playing out on the streets is a dangerous game
While war rages on like a hurricane
Fight back day by day
Listen what the papers say
Ripped of little shoe on a deserted square
Is the painful proof this war ain't fair
Life is a minefield stroll
Our backs against the wall

Now it's so easy to forget
It's so easy to forget
There's a war going on
Somewhere, somehow
Everyday
There's a war going on
It's getting worse day by day

Time is running short
There's nothing we can do
There's nothing we can do
Wake up and find a solution
There must be something we can do
There must be something we can do

They were caught by sniper or mortar attack
Running out of tears they won't bring them back
Living in fear day by day
Listen what the papers say
Hiding in cellars till silence returns
There's no place for a child in a city that burns
Every step you take could be your last
Waiting for the final blast

Now it's so easy to forget
It's so easy to forget
There's a war going on
Somewhere, somehow
Everyday
There's a war going on
It's getting worse day by day

Still the fighting goes on in Bosnia
Murder, rape, racial mania
Politicians dragging their feet
Life's blood full of hate
It's getting too late

There's a war going on
Somewhere, somehow
Everyday
There's a war going on
It's getting worse day by day
